This transport is based on rsync over ssh providing dramatic performance improvements. It will only work with TK 1.4 and rsync has to be available in the PATH on both local and remote end points.
Only passwordless (using ssh key pair) communication is supported at the moment.
transport:
name: rsync
ssh_key: ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key
